Japanese Manhole Covers

What’s up with Japanese manhole covers? Why are they so artsy and beautiful? They are just beautiful works of art! I actually couldn’t resist taking photos of them whenever I get the chance even though I pass by them everyday. They are very unique in each city and region, how amazing is that?

Those who have been in Japan, have you seen them? I’m sure you already did! For those who haven’t visited Japan yet, I know the designs will interest you as much as I did.
